1. Bullying Detection & Prevention

Presenter: Valerie Craigwell White, Ombudsperson

Bullying has been in the headlines frequently over the past year, as incidents in schools have led to increased isolation and sometimes suicide. Bullying is defined as a pattern of aggressive behavior that involves unwanted, negative actions, repeated over time, involving an imbalance of power or strength.  With the advent of social networking and increased online communication, bullies have taken to the internet to further harass and intimidate their prey.  Learn what you can do to deal with bullying, and how to spot warning signs of being either a bully or the victim in your child, a student or co-worker.
